Universal Audio make a range of pro-quality hardware, as well as software plug-ins that authentically model a selection of classic analogue gear. These powerful plug-ins require special Universal Audio digital processors in order to work, and customers purchasing a new UAD PCIe or Satellite card or interface receive a complimentary collection of UAD plug-ins called Analog Classics.

However, there's more good news from the Universal Audio camp, with many products now coming with expanded bundles (i.e. more plug-ins) as standard! Eligible customers who have registered cards from Jan 1st 2014 will also automatically be credited with the appropriate plugins. Check out the table below to find out which plug-ins/bundles now come with selected UA products.

Universal Audio's UAD PCIe cards equip your computer with pure DSP power for running their professional plug-ins, many of which give you the authentic sounds and features of classic analogue gear at a tiny fraction of the price of the hardware.

From April 1st until June 30th 2014, anyone purchasing and registering a new UAD-2 Octo PCIe card will receive a voucher worth $750, which can be redeemed in the UAD store against your choice of plug-ins.

Each interface features extremely high-quality professional converters and preamps for a crystal clear sound, plus that all-important built-in DSP, which allows you to run Universal Audio's amazing plug-ins, many of which model sought after analogue gear with unbelievable accuracy.

Universal Audio's Apollo interfaces provide top-quality professional preamps and converters, a selection of studio-ready connections and to top it all off, built-in DSP for running UA's amazing plug-ins.

Universal Audio plug-ins are considered by many to be the best in the business, providing realistic software emulations of some of the most sought-after analogue studio gear ever. For example, fancy owning a classic 1176 limiter? Or the fabled Shadow Hills mastering compressor? Or maybe you fancy putting your sound through a Neve channel strip? There's no need to fork out thousands of pounds or clear any rack space if you own a UAD card... simply purchase the software plug-ins and you can even run multiple instances in a single project if you have enough spare DSP!
